Read the two excerpts below. The first one is from Captain John Smith's personal account of his rescue by Pocahontas, and the second one is from the children's book The Story of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith published in 1906. Notice how the two accounts differ.
They were ready with their clubs to beat out his brains when Pocahontas, the King's dearest daughter, when no begging could prevail, took his head in her arms, and laid her own head upon his to save him from death.
--from John Smith's personal accounts
But just as the Indian brave was about to strike, his great war club swinging high in the air, Pocahontas rushed forward and threw herself between him and his victim. With her own body she shielded the Captain from harm, for her heart was moved to pity for the stranger, and she could not bear that he should die.
--from The Story of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith
What is the BEST way to describe how these two accounts differ?
Smith's account indicates exactly what Pocahontas said; the children's book leaves this part out
Smith's account includes details about why Pocahontas intervened; the children's book does not
Smith's original account lacks emotions; the children's story attributes emotions to Pocahontas
Smith's original account is full of emotion; the children's story is lacking in emotion
